Using DVD Decrypter, I suddenly cannot burn DVD's. I'm using Memorex 16X DVD-R's, which have always worked in the past. I'm getting the following log in DVD Decrypter:

I've thought about updating firmware but am not sure how to do that..I have a DELL Dimension 5100....help!
I'll give that a try..It's frustrating because the Memorex DVD's have worked well in the past w/Decrypter..However, this is the first from a new batch I just bought the other day so maybe that's the problem.. Is Imgburn that much better than DVD Decrypter? Might the memorex DVD's work with this program? (so I don't have to spend more $$ on blank DVD's)
Really look into udating your firmware.
Dell Should help you with the Firmware.
Also instead of using 16x disc try using 8x disc
Burn at 1/2 the rated speed of the disc.
Imgburn is the Best of the Best.
If you don't already have DFab decrypter download it and use it to RIP to your hdd
Just wanted to put my 2 cents in, as the others have already mentioned yes it is. The GUI is much more user friendly and the options are all right there in front of you. Also a big advantage over DVD Decrypter is that you are not limited to burning ISO's, as ImgBurn can take your DVD files and burn them straight to disk. That can save you an extra step on occasion.
